I have just installed emacs 25.2 64bit on a 64 bit windows 10 laptop.
Will the DLLs from ezwinports (specifically gnutls and libxml2) work
with a 64 bit emacs?
Would it be better (ie. will the ezwinports DLLs work better) if I use
the 686 version of emacs?
Thanks!

No, of course not. You cannot use 32-bit DLLs with 64-bit executables
(and vice versa).

It will be "better" in the sense that those DLLs will then work for
you ;-)

Ok, thanks!

Well, there doesn't seem to be any similar collection to ezwinports of
64 bit versions of the essential DLLs for emacs, so this may be the only
way to go.
Thanks again!
